Gay online dating app
Adam4Adam is a dating app geared towards the members of the LGBTQ community. Billed as World’s Largest Gay Social Network, this social app allows its intended users to meet, chat, and hook up with gay users. Whether you are looking for a date, a friend, a long-time partner, or even casual fun, you will find it here. Be warned, however, it is not an app you would browse in your workplace and most public places.
How do you use Adam4Adam?
The sign-up process is simple, and it only takes about 90 seconds to setup. You only need to create an account and profile to get started. Unlike Grindr’s Tribe feature, Adam4Adam skips the step of classifying yourself into a category. However, your profile requires approval before you can start chatting with any other user. Only then can you meet other men in your area and chat with them.
The app has a comprehensive list of search filters, so you can either be too specific or too general in your browsing. As a free user, you are allowed to save three searches. If you want more, you need to subscribe to the premium service. Also worth noting is the fact that the app deletes inactive conversations. Basic members have a limit of 10 days, while premium users have 30. Free users can also save 20 conversations—both active and inactive—to their Saved folder, while VIPs can keep up to 200 messages.
In terms of usability, Adam4Adam lags behind its competitors. The interface is clunky, dated, and is ridden with fully nude profile pictures. It's closer to the likes of Squirt and Manhunt, so you'll likely find a fling than a life partner. Security is also under scrutiny as the app has become a platform for catfishers. Be wary that the app is largely a sex application and it also allows users to watch a live cam show and purchase sex toys.
More on hookups than a serious relationship
Adam4Adam is a free app that offers more than just dating services. Aside from meeting other people from the LGBTQ community, there are various other activities, be it watching live cams or hiring an escort. Using the mobile app can be challenging as it lacks both function and design. Users should also understand that the app is a sex-first service than an online dating app. You are more likely to find a casual hook up than a serious relationship.
